It depends how fast you drive!
Usually the sessions are timed. 10 to 15 minutes each so if you are lapping say 1.20 then its enough for you to be ready for the chequered flag and your car with be glad of the rest:tup:

Put me down for one of the 12 for a CA session Mr C please. :tup:

Had the email yesterday about the standard sessions and its £189 for 6 and its pot luck who you get to battle with.

It's 1.85 miles and its a car killer if you aren't prepared and if you and your car are, it's one of the best tracks to drive in the UK

Thanks for the info Steve :tup:

The trouble is with Castle Combe it just never looks that exciting or much of a challenge when you view footage of it, I'm sure it's one of those that needs to be driven to be fully appreciated. :hmmm: Very tempted to come and have a go.

There a few people who have had that misconception about Castle Combe and have gone home on the back of breaker..!,:hand:

Lol!!
Exactly that Andy. It's fast and very technical when driven properly. People say the worst corner to get round is Quarry at the top of the circuit where everyone goes off. Thats not strictly true, its a simple right turn with a massive run out to the left. The problem corner is the one before Quarry, Avon. Your car goes light over the crest and if you aren't in the correct position as you exit over the crest on the approach to Quarry, its all over long before to try an turn in.

It'd be great to get 12 classics going round in a mildly swift convoy!!

Can I bum a ride then Dad !

:tup:

its to far forme 350 miles one way did it last year just as one off

I've pedalled the race car around Oulton and Donington a few times and there doesn't seem to be too many nasty surprises to catch you out. From what you guys are saying, Castle Combe does sound a bit tricky, but I guess it's like any circuit, it takes two or three laps to get it sussed?

Without doubt you'll be fine then. Nothing tricky about CC, its about being precise in the corners because its such a fast circuit, with a lovely 100mph plus double apex on the section in front of the pits and no margin for error at the back of the circuit if you are on it and not perfect in the bendy bit! For any newbies on track I would recommend 3 laps with David DeCosta who is the chief instructor ( thats if you can grab him fast enough!) to get the lines firmly implanted, then you're away!! :tup:

Terry (terrywindy1) Audi V8 3.6 (Fingers crossed) or 94 100 TDI Estate will be on A2OC site as well

I'm up for some track time too, if we can get 12 CA bods together. It's got to be worth £35 - and, from the way I've read it, that includes your entry fee (£10), so reduces the track time to a mere £25 :D

Ace :tup:

I'll be joining the Club Audi brigade seeing as I'm secretary, but as per previous years hope to follow the convoy down from up North:tup: If I can get my car back together and mapped by then, fingers crossed...:rock:

If I go in something it's either the ur or something new

id like to come along if that's ok. What time would I need to be at the show? and how much to I need to pay and when, id like to go round the track aswell as I watched it last year. Is a race as I wouldn't fancy my chances as its a 1989 B3 2.0e. Does it cost extra for passengers to ride round the track? if anyone could help cheers

any displaying in the club area should try and arrive by 09:30 at the latest to minimise movement on site when there is a lot of people around.

IIRC, it's £10 payable on the gate.

It's always a damn good day, need an MOT before then so hopefully I'll be there :-D

No races, not timed, you drive at whatever pace suits you and your car and anyone faster simply overtakes. I'm sure Coxy will furnish full details if we get enough for a CA session. Drivers and any passengers sign on when you arrive, there is a cost for passengers I recall but its minimal.:tup:

Count me in.
